Hi, Jill. I know what you mean, and I feel the same way. Of course,
Bookshare helps with that, too, and I'm definitely thankful to have both,
but as much as I love books, there's no doubt I'd have my own real, physical
library with shelves and shelves of books if I could see, but since I can't,
I have a virtual library of more books than I'll ever read in a lifetime,
probably, and that's fine with me, too. <smile> Take care.

I love having my own personal web braille library that I never could have
before. I have always thought that if I could see, I would be a book
collector.
